SIMATIC PDM Process Device Manager2
SIMATIC PDM Process Device ManagerOverview
Configuration options with SIMATIC PDM
SIMATIC PDM (Process Device Manager) is a universal, manu-facturer-independent tool for the configuration, parameter assignment, commissioning, diagnostics and maintenance of intelligent field devices (sensors and actuators) and field com-ponents (remote I/Os, multiplexers, control room devices, compact controllers), which in the following sections will be referred to simply as devices.
Using only one software, SIMATIC PDM enables the processing of more than 4 500 devices and device variants from Siemens and over 200 manufacturers worldwide with a uniform user interface. Parameters and functions for all sup-ported devices are displayed in a consistent and uniform fashion independent of their communications interface.
With respect to device integration, SIMATIC PDM is the most powerful open Process Device Manager on the global market. Devices which previously were not supported can be inte-grated in SIMATIC PDM by importing their device descriptions (EDD). This provides security and saves investment, training and consequential costs.
Possible applications of SIMATIC PDM
• System-integrated in a SIMATIC PCS 7 / STEP 7 configuration environment, for example, the engineering station and maintenance station of the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system
• Stand-alone - Central service station on a stationary computer on the
system bus with access to devices connected to the sup-ported automation systems (S7-300, S7-400, S7-1500)
- Local service station on a mobile computer directly on the device or local fieldbus segment (independent of the automation system)

Engineering4
EngineeringClearly structured engineering with coordinated views
The ergonomic operator interface of SIMATIC PDM satisfies the requirements of the guidelines VDI/VDE GMA 2187 and IEC 65/349/CD. Even complex devices with several hundred parameters can be represented clearly and processed quickly. Expansion of the device description language EDDL also allows display elements to be shown perfectly.
Operators are provided with several views of the project and the devices to be processed, and their application depends on the procedure and mode of use of the Process Device Manager:
• Hardware project view for the SIMATIC PDM integrated in SIMATIC PCS 7/STEP 7View of SIMATIC PCS 7/S7 hardware project from which the SIMATIC PDM parameter assignment user interface can be directly opened for the devices. Devices are configured using HW Config and displayed graphically or in tabular form.
• Process device network view, preferably for stand-alone useProject view for clear representation of the hierarchical hardware structure with all networks, communications components, and devices. This can be automatically pro-duced by scanning the actual plant. The parameter data gained in the stand-alone version of SIMATIC PDM can be imported into a SIMATIC PCS 7/S7 project.
• Process device plant viewView of all devices/TAGs present in the project (indepen-dent of the communications path used) with additional information on the diagnostics state of the devices and communications paths. Uniform symbols are used as the basis for displaying the diagnostics state of all devices.
• Parameter view View of device parameters with a wide variety of functions:- Parameter assignment functions, e.g. measurement
unit, measuring range- Online functions, e.g. display values, charts, diagnostics- Calibration functions, e.g. zero, runtimes of valves- Comparison functions, e.g. devices, saved project data- Export/import functions, e.g. parameters, projects- Logging functions
• Lifelist view for commissioning and service Single or cyclically generated network view for the identifi-cation and addressing of devices (see page 11)

Device integration 5
Device integrationDevice integration made easy
Electronic Device Description (EDD)
SIMATIC PDM supports all devices which are defined by means of the Electronic Device Description (EDD). EDD is stan-dardized to EN 50391 and IEC 61804. Internationally, it is the most widely used standardized technology for device integra-tion. At the same time, it is the guideline of the established organizations for
• PROFIBUS and PROFINET (PI - PROFIBUS & PROFINET International)
• HART (HCF: HART Communication Foundation)• FF (Fieldbus Foundation)
The devices are integrated directly in SIMATIC PDM through a company-specific device description package (EDD and addi-tional documents and attachments), or the current HCF or Fieldbus Foundation libraries. The management of project-specific device libraries improves transparency.
PROFIBUS devices are described in the EDD in terms of functionality and construction using the Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL). Using this description, SIMATIC PDM automatically creates its user interfaces with the specific device information.
Fieldbus Foundation provides pre-defined device descriptions (standard DD) for the basic functions of specific field device types. The basic functions are implemented using various standard function and transmission blocks.
The current device description library of SIMATIC PDM covers more than 4 500 devices from over 200 manufacturers world-wide. By simply importing the manufacturer's device-specific EDD, existing devices can be updated and further devices can be integrated in SIMATIC PDM. It is thus possible to keep the device range up to date at all times and to add to the number of manufacturers and devices supported by SIMATIC PDM.

Advantages of the EDD
The advantages of the EDD as a text-based device descrip-tion are quite clear:
• Independent of the operating system • Forms an inseparable function unit together with the
device • Long-term stability throughout the entire device life
cycle, yet can be modified and/or extended at any time • Contents can be individually matched to any device by
the device manufacturer • Gives the device manufacturer a wide scope of possi-
bilities for generating unique features, e.g. - Implementation of manufacturer-specific diagnostics
functions in addition to standard diagnostics - Integration of own documents and help texts - Implementation of plans for device-specific handling
sequences, e.g. commissioning, calibration, servicing - Wizards as commissioning aids

SIMATIC PDM device import with the Device Integration Manager
Device Integration Manager
The Device Integration Manager supports user-friendly import of the device descriptions with practical functions and clear displays, e.g.:
• Information on device descriptions• Information on the device descriptions used• Filter and search functions • Direct import from compressed files• Documentation functions• Checking functions (semantics, syntax, completeness)• Creation of project-specific device libraries• Delete function for imported device descriptions
Quality assurance
As an open parameter assignment tool, SIMATIC PDM is not subject to any restrictions. To guarantee high quality in device integration, conformity in the case of all new additions or cor-rections must be verified by certification. A declaration of con-formity contains:
• Information on the device• Information on existing certificates• Changes as compared to previous versions• Verifications for the test with SIMATIC PDM• Compatibility information
Device integration via partner companies
If you would like to use any devices which cannot be found in the SIMATIC PDM device description library, we will be pleased to help you integrate them.
Siemens AG does not itself integrate any device descriptions of field device manufacturers in the EDD Device Library of SIMATIC PDM. It has negotiated appropriate service agree-ments with selected partner companies for this.

Parameter view 7
Parameter viewCentral device view with uniform representation
Parameter view - single
The parameter view quickly provides a comprehensive over-view of a device. It has a clear layout.
Visualization and handling are uniform for all devices, that is, regardless of device type, device manufacturer, and device communication:
• Toolbar for general functions • Menu with device functions • Working window divided into two sections with navigation
window (left) and parameter window with parameter name, value, engineering unit and status
• Parameter status is controlled via the navigation tree• User-specific language switching (standard language:
English)
Each device can be selected, processed and loaded directly, with all device functions accessible.
The device structure and contents are defined by the device description provided by the manufacturer.
Parameter view - multiview
The read/write parameters have a light background and can be easily distinguished from the read-only parameters with their gray background. Modifications, invalid values, initial values and read/write status are clearly identified in terms of color and text.
Since users can easily differentiate the functions provided by SIMATIC PDM from the device-specific functions, they are quickly able to find the right contact partner for their support request.
Depending on the selection, the navigation window of the parameter view is either focused on a single device or it displays the device within the hierarchical network structure (multiview). Multiview is very convenient for displaying com-plete networks or modular components such as remote I/O with connected HART field devices.

Informative online displays8
Informative online displays
SIMATIC PDM offers numerous possibilities for online com-munication with the devices. Values/parameters that can be visualized and accessed online are defined by the respective device manufacturer using the electronic device description (EDD). Standardized online displays are used for the display. They are optimally tailored for various functions relating to the device descriptions, and also permit online operations in some cases.
Examples of online functions which can then be implemented are:
• Monitoring of process values• Monitoring of measured signal raw values• Monitoring of internal device status or wear values• Calibration functions• Zero settings• Min/max pointer• Trend curves with several variables• X/Y curves, e.g. envelope curves for radar level meters• Diagnostics states• Resetting to factory settings• Operating mode switchover• Online parameter assignment• Simulation of process variables, states and diagnostics
messages• Classification of device-specific diagnostics• Quick start-up

Device management 9
Device management
Essential criteria for the use of intelligent field devices include:
• Simple and efficient engineering
• Stable device descriptions across the entire life cycle of the production plant/device
The device types, versions, and manufacturers used in pro-duction plants are often not yet known at the time of planning and configuration. Moreover, commissioning, maintenance, service, and device replacement must be as easy and problem-free as possible for the plant personnel. With device-neutral configuration and different device management scenarios, SIMATIC PDM is able to meet these challenges.
Device-neutral configuration
In device-neutral configuration of process tags, it is not neces-sary to know the precise device type or the manufacturer of the field device. A typical example of this is the connection of HART field devices on 4 to 20 mA interfaces of HART-enabled analog modules in remote I/O stations. On these 4 to 20 mA interfaces, any field devices with a suitable interface can be connected and operated via a "neutral channel".
The configuration of the process tag in the automation project is independent of the field device used later. Using SIMATIC PDM, a device-neutral device description containing only the process tag data, for example, can be assigned for the period up to commissioning. However, to be able to use the full device functionality, device-specific parameter assignment cannot be avoided. For this purpose, a device-specific EDD is simply assigned with SIMATIC PDM.
With SIMATIC PDM, the principle of configuring via a "neutral channel" can also be used for field devices on PROFIBUS DP/PA. This requires the use of device-neutral profile GSD files during the hardware configuration. These files are specified and provided by the "PROFIBUS & PROFINET International" organization.

Configuration options for HART devices
The "neutral channel" on PROFIBUS DP/PA is significantly more user-friendly than the "neutral channel" on a 4 to 20 mA interface. Multiple measured values can be transferred simul-taneously in both directions via this channel. In this way, for example, analog or binary actuating signals can be transferred to analog actuators, and in the opposite direction, analog or binary feedback (including status information) from the auto-mation system can be read.
The device management of SIMATIC PDM supports both the assignment of the device-specific description to a field device, and its updating or replacement (e.g. in the case of a device replacement) without the loss of parameter data.
Configuration options for PROFIBUS DP/PA devices• Use of a profile GSD with 1+n process values (AI, AO, DI,
DO) or a positioning channel• Use of a device-neutral EDD for the electronic rating plate • Use of a profile EDD corresponding to the process tag type,
e.g. temperature or pressure• Use of a device-specific EDD
Configuration options for HART devices• Use of a device-neutral EDD for the electronic rating plate • Use of a universal HART EDD in accordance with the
"Universal HART Commands" of the HCF• Use of the device-specific EDD from the device description
library of the HCF• Use of the device-specific EDD from the device description
library of SIMATIC PDM
Corrections/updates and device replacementDepending on the communication used, SIMATIC PDM supports different device management scenarios:
• Updating of device descriptions (EDD)DIM detects compatible corrections and function expan-sions. It assigns the updated EDD automatically to all devices.
• Upgrading of device descriptions (EDD)DIM detects incompatible corrections and function expan-sions. The EDD is inserted in the device description library for manual assignment.
• Support of field device replacement/substitution with- Devices of the same type and version- Devices of the same type but different version- Devices of a new device generation of the same type
from the same manufacturer- Devices from different manufacturers on the basis of the
PA profile

Lifelist 11
Lifelist
Lifelist
User-friendly view for service and commissioning
The Lifelist is a network view for identification, diagnostics and online parameter assignment of devices. It is created on-line. It can be created once or cyclically. As a result of its spe-cial orientation, the Lifelist is an ideal working environment for service and commissioning.
It permits scanning of PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS PA lines including subordinate structures, and displays these in a clear form. It is also possible to include HART devices that are connected through a HART modem. It is therefore no longer absolutely necessary to have a knowledge of the plant struc-ture during service work.
The Lifelist is not just a display and source of information – it provides much more:
• The parameter assignment interface of the devices can be called directly from the Lifelist without having to open a project. All the offline and online functions of the devices are thus immediately available.
• Addresses and TAGs can be directly modified online in the Lifelist.
• Existing projects can be synchronized using the Lifelist.• The contents of the Lifelist can be exported as an XML file.• The Lifelist can be transferred easily into a SIMATIC PDM
stand-alone project.
The Lifelist displays the following information for the devices and all connected components:
• Addresses• TAG• Device type• Device status• Manufacturer• Software revision• Profile version
The device status (diagnostic information) is identified by meaningful, easily recognizable, and uniform symbols for all devices.
If an EDD exists for a device, the determined diagnostic infor-mation is compiled using this device description. This results in increased convenience, since the diagnostic information is language-dependent and can be displayed together with additional device-specific information such as cause of fault, effect of fault, and notes for troubleshooting. Apart from this, the diagnostic information is displayed as defined in the PROFIBUS GSD.
The Lifelist offers two levels for scanning the PROFIBUS:
• Scan for identification of connected devices• Scan for device identification, with option for additional
determination of diagnostics state and device status

HART OPC server12
HART OPC serverDetection of HART multiplexer network structures
The optional product component, SIMATIC PDM HART server, uses the original HART OPC server. SIMATIC PDM thus provides excellent support for service and commissioning, especially in stand-alone applications.
HART multiplexer networks can be scanned using the HART OPC server, and their structures displayed clearly. The struc-tures can be automatically imported into a SIMATIC PDM project or used to synchronize existing projects. It is therefore unnecessary to have knowledge of the HART multiplexer net-work structure.
A further function of the HART OPC server is reading of the device identification which immediately assigns the correct device description to SIMATIC PDM.
The HART OPC server is suitable for single-stage and multi-stage multiplexers, e.g. P&F multiplexers or MTL multiplexers.
Detailed information on which types of multiplexer are sup-ported by the HART OPC server can be obtained directly from the manufacturers or from the HCF (HART Communication Foundation).
With SIMATIC PDM, WirelessHART adapters and WirelessHART field devices can also be processed via the HART OPC server.

Asset management 13
Asset management
Asset management comprises all activities and measures which serve to retain or increase the value of a plant. In addi-tion to system management, process control, and process optimization, these primarily include maintenance and repairs which retain and increase the plant value, so-called plant-level asset management.
As a result of its comprehensive functionalities for configura-tion, parameter assignment, commissioning, diagnostics and maintenance of intelligent field devices and components, SIMATIC PDM is particularly suitable for plant-level asset management.
In order to deliver meaningful and reliable results, asset management systems require a large amount of basic infor-mation. In real plants, this data is highly heterogeneous and unstructured, which makes it very difficult to access. SIMATIC PDM is able to determine the device data relevant to plant-level asset management, and to transfer this in XML format over a standardized interface to higher-level asset manage-ment systems (SIMATIC PCS 7 Maintenance Station or SIMATIC PDM Maintenance Station ). The basis for this is the electronic device descriptions (EDD) which are autono-mous of the operating system. Collecting the data and inter-preting the results are independent of the device type, in other words, it makes no difference whether the device is an actuator or sensor, or a PROFIBUS, HART or FF device.
However, SIMATIC PDM is far more than just a collector of data for higher-level asset management systems. It also provides a variety of its own asset management functions:
• Determination of differences between the offline data and the current parameters in the device
• Multilingual presentation of diagnostics data read from the devices (device-specific data and profile data)
• Uniform presentation and identification of diagnostics and status data of all devices with uniform symbols
• Data transfer to an asset management system activated by a request from this system
• Extensive logging functions (change log, calibration re-port)
• Export interface for all data• Integration of project-specific and device-specific docu-
ments

Practical functions14
Practical functions
Exporting and importing of data
SIMATIC PDM can export configuration and parameter data and import it again in a convenient manner. In this way, data can be exchanged between different projects, computers, or field devices, for example. The export is always made in XML format.
In the life cycle of a production plant, the export and import functions support device management as follows:
• Export of parameter data, diagnostic information, and assigned user documents
• Export of data for individual devices or entire network structures, whereby the parameter data is saved indivi-dually for all field devices and made available for individual import
• Import of parameter data with or without process tag labels
• Import of exported device data regardless of device type and version, so that parameter data of the same type can be transferred to field devices of different versions and from different manufacturers
During the import, the data is compared and supplemented, if necessary. Parameters of existing field devices or modules are thus overwritten, and non-existent field devices or modules are created. If no device description is assigned, assignment takes place in accordance with the contents of the import file. However, no field devices or modules are deleted.
Examples of effective utilization of data export and import are:
• Generation of parameter typicals (default parameter settings) for device types
• Transfer of parameters read out of the devices by SIMATIC PDM into the office world (e.g. Excel spread-sheets)
• Determination of plant configurations, and transfer of structure and parameter settings to a project
Change log
A change log can be activated in SIMATIC PDM. This records which user has executed which actions or changes for each field device.
The functions of the change log include:
• Archiving functions (manual or automatic)• Filter and search functions (for text, actions, or field
devices)• Input of user comments on executed actions• User-defined entries in the change log

Practical functions 15
Data comparison between two devices
Data comparison
SIMATIC PDM offers the facility for comparing parameters and settings, and to then decide what should be imported or adjusted. The compared objects and differences are clearly and unambiguously identified in color.
The following comparison functions are available:
• Comparison of offline data in the project database with the actual device data
• Comparison of offline data of two different devices in the project database
• Comparison of data of two different devices
Logging and documentation
A SIMATIC PDM system function enables an individual calibra-tion report to be produced for each integrated field device. The selected parameters are automatically imported into this log.
Internet links and documents, e.g. device manuals, integrated into the device description by the manufacturer can be accessed quickly and easily using the parameter view's help menu.
Up to 10 individual multimedia files (text, charts, video, audio) can be additionally included with each device by means of a documentation manager which is also integrated in the parameter view's help menu. These files can be assigned to individual process tags specific to the plant.

The functionality and performance of SIMATIC PDM can be adapted to the individual needs of the customer (see table). The customer has the following basic options:
• Use of the minimum configuration SIMATIC PDM Single Point
• Selection of an application-specific product configuration• Construction of a desired configuration starting from the
SIMATIC PDM Basic configuration
The selection depends on the application, for example:
• System-integrated in the configuration environment of the engineering station and the maintenance station of the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system
• Stand-alone as a service station:- Centrally on a stationary computer on the system bus - Locally on a mobile computer directly on the device or
on the local fieldbus
SIMATIC PDM Single Point cannot be expanded. In contrast, SIMATIC PDM Basic, Service, S7, PCS 7, PCS 7 Server and PCS 7 FF can be expanded both functionally and with cumulative TAG licenses.
A TAG in this case corresponds to a SIMATIC PDM object, which represents individual field devices or components within a project, e.g. measuring instruments, positioners, switching devices or remote I/Os. Also regarded as a TAG is every diagnostics-enabled device detected by diagnostics with the Lifelist whose detailed diagnostics are implemented via the device description (EDD).
